Sad news to report as Ray Manzarek, the legendary keyboardist of the Doors, has passed away at the age of 74. The veteran musician died today in Germany after a long battle with bile duct cancer.
The Doors were the big honorees at the Sunset Strip Music Festival this year, which opened a few doors for them when it came to performing over the weekend. One advantage they took was the opportunity to join Marilyn Manson onstage during Saturday’s (Aug 18) outdoor bash.
Jim Morrison was a genius. Genius! Sure, he had his issues. He drank too much, smoked too much, banged too much, and took way more acid than any human being should. He was a complete and utter ____ up, but at the end of the day, he was a special that only comes around once in a life time. (Actually minus the genius stuff, he sounds a lot like us)
